Lenny Kravitz's Knee-High Wedge Boots: Love 'Em or Hate 'Em?

Taking the leap from skinny jeans to full-on leather pants is a bold move for any man, but Lenny Kravitz took it one step further on Thursday, tucking his leather pants into knee-high wedge boots! Proving that fashion truly has no gender, the rocker was snapped leaving his N.Y.C. hotel confidently donning the wedge leather boots with a drapey cowl-neck pullover and a cross-body man purse! And while it has become acceptable for any man to wear designer denim or even obsess over his hair products, it seems that Lenny may just be standing alone in this bold sartorial effort — for now. Tell us: Is he on the heels of the next wave of men’s fashion or has he gone too far with his high-heeled boots?Vote below! –Justine Harman

The whole leather pants/wedge boots combo on a guy is nothing new (see Bill Kaulitz and most of the eighties), but Kravitz’s ensemble looks horrible and is far from flattering. Not that he shouldn’t wear it, it just needs to be retailored to better fit him.

Guys be for real, that’s not a man purse, nor a man tunic and most certainly not man heels. I saw this photo this morning on tv and guffawed to the point of having to stifle myself. This is more like Norma Kamali circa 1981. A man wearing women’s fashions however famous does not a “man clothes” make. This is called CROSSING DRESSING, there I said it and it needed to be said, don’t you think? And by the way no judgments here, just giggles.

Rick Owens’s boots are nothing new on men, not everyone simply follows the fashion trends as closely. The designer himself has been wearing boots like these (and others) for several years. Lenny Kravitz has always been pretty fashion forward so I think it is cool he’s picked up on Owens.
